Some Fun Photography Related Quotes
Most things in life are moments of pleasure and a lifetime of embarrassment; photography is a moment of embarrassment and a lifetime of pleasure. ~Tony Benn
It can make you sad to look at pictures from your youth. So there's a trick to it. The trick is not to look at the later pictures. ~Jerry Stiller
A room hung with pictures is a room hung with thoughts. ~Joshua Reynolds
A strange thing is memory, and hope; one looks backward, and the other forward; one is of today, the other of tomorrow. Memory is history recorded in our brain, memory is a painter, it paints pictures of the past and of the day. ~Grandma Moses

Membership: (Photo 1) This was new board member Gary Braisted’s first time working the membership desk. Gary and volunteer Gerri Russell assisted both new and existing members with all their membership needs. FUN thanks them both for a job well done!
Dealer Registration (Photos 2&3) Jim Best, & Nancy Casey once again handled the Dealer Registration area, like old pros. They effectively handle dealer check in helping to get our FUN Member Dealers off to their tables in a timely manner.
Early Bird(Photos 4) Glenda Hocker has overseen the Early Bird desk for several years. Glenda’s professional finesse with our FUN dealers never ceases to amaze me. No matter how long her line gets she never gets overwhelmed. She takes the time to ensure each dealers questions are addressed and processes their early bird badge transaction as quickly as possible. I affectionately refer to her as Super Woman! I mean c’mon! Have you ever seen the early bird line? :)
Photo I.D. (photos 5&6) All Dealers must obtain a photo I.D. for the show and that is Carrie Best's department. Carrie and her staff of volunteers encourage smiles as they photograph FUN Convention Dealers & Staff. In photo 5 Vice President Donna Moon pays Carries photo booth a visit.

Once again the Hobo Nickel Society booth was hopping as Rollie instructed our young numismatists in the art of Nickel Carving. You couldn't pull Jason away from his project, and believe me his older brother tried. :D Abbey and Riley enjoyed watching the carving as well.
